The lower body constitutes the thighs, the hips, the lower abs and the lower limbs. Essentially speaking, how to lose lower body fat therefore touches on all the fat reserves that occur below the waist.
Spot weight loss- losing body fat in particular regions of the body, as in the case of how to reduce lower body fat- is practically impossible. According to the American Council on Exercise, spot fat reduction is very arduous a strategy. The council recommends strategies that target the entire body instead. Such a holistic approach will definitely impact the lower body fat stores, just like the other parts of the body. This article has detailed some of the newly discovered techniques on how to lose lower body fat.
Strategy categories
How are the strategies on how to burn lower body fat categorized? The particular strategies have been broken down as follows:
• Diet to lose lower body fat
• Exercises to lose lower body fat
• The role of commitment & passion
Dietary restrictions to lose lower body fat
The desire, urge and commitment on how to reduce lower body fat will inevitably call for a careful watch on what you eat. The choice of the diet to lose lower body fat is not takes consideration of all the food components- fats, proteins, carbs, fruits etc. A lot of attention is given to the following aspects of the foods that we eat:
i. Fast foods
ii. Sugar in all its forms
iii. Carbohydrates
iv. Sodium in all its edible forms
Fast foods
Wondering how to reduce lower body fat and still do the fast foods? Well, the 2 are like water and oil. They never exist together. If you are interested in eliminating the lower body fats then, you just must part ways with most of the fast foods. This is because, most of them are processed with a lot of fats, sugars or the unhealthy carbs.
Sugar in all its forms
Reliance on diet to lose lower body fat depends a lot on keeping an eye on sugar foods we intake. Biologically speaking, our body depends heavily on sugar for energy. This is to say that without sugar in the body then one is as good as dead. Excess of this vital component could set the whole system spinning out of control. Any excess sugar is converted into body fats. Evidently, the lower body will also benefit from this generous supply. Sugar also makes our bodies very susceptible to insulin. Insulin controls various metabolic processes in the human body. In fact, researchers have linked insulin with gaining of body fat though the metabolic conversion of excess blood sugar into lipids. Evidently, the more sugar you consume, the more fat deposits in your body.
Carbs constitute the largest proportion of our food intakes. Carbohydrates are another complex form of sugars. As above mentioned, the body mechanism has a way of converting any excess sugars into fats. In addition, we have mentioned something on the sugar-insulin interaction.
That said, to keep a keen watch on the lower body fat, the recommended amount of carbohydrates is 50%. The bulk of this should be complex carbs.
Sodium products
The human body requires a measured amount of sodium for proper functionality. Any excesses of sodium in the body is a recipe for water retention in the body – a medical condition in which water is stored under the skin. This normally gives the skin a bloated and bulky appearance. In addition, it works up your body fat volume. You certainly don't want to get this far, do you? Just keep an eye on your salt intake if you are to work down your lower body fat!!!
Exercises to lose lower body fat
The above mentioned dietary restriction goes hand in hand with rigorous exercise. The exercises that are most appropriate in losing lower body fat are classified into two main groups:
• Cardio exercises to loses lower body fat
• Weight training to lose lower body fat
How to burn lower body fat using cardio exercises
Cardio exercises come in very different forms. Swimming, running, rope jumping, walking and jogging are all forms of cardio. These exercises are best complemented with little bit of fasting. If you are not comfortable with that, there is the other alternative of resistance training-limiting your calories remarkably.
Note: In case of walking jogging, or running, if you want your exercise more challenging, you can try wearing a weighted vest.
When intensified, cardio exercise has immediate results. For the newbies, cardio is best done in sessions so that per session you spend a maximum of 30 minutes. 5 sessions weekly is just good for a start!!!
With proper scheduling, cardio exercising will provide the anticipated results just at the right time. Men and women alike can do the cardio exercises. If you want to take your cardio to the next level, try some of these best cardio machines.
Weight training to lose lower body fat
The question on how to lose lower body fat is best answered by weight training. Of course weight training means you must frequent the gymnasium.
The various tips provided herein include aspects on home based training. To mean tight office schedule is no excuse for not attending your training sessions. Here are some of the weight training tips that you will love:
The squats are ideal for thinning the fat in the lower body. How to reduce lower body fat is made much easier because of the many muscles engaged during any single squat. This is the perfect hamstring for lower body fat deposits. Some of the muscles engaged in this light but very effective exercise include the hamstrings, the calf muscle, the muscles of the thigh and hips. Squats can be done at the gym, at home or right in the office.
Dead lifts
This one is best for building on muscle mass. Dead lifting engages all the major muscles of the body. In addition, it stimulates the secretion of more and more testosterone, a hormone that favors muscle building. If you are tending towards the nadir on how to burn lower body fat, the dead lifts is here for you.
Step ups
This one simulates the natural body movements. As a strength exercise, step ups are very effective in working your quads, calves, glutes and the hamstrings. Because of its variations, one can go for step ups to tone the lower body fats and still build on muscles.
This one is specific to toning the lower body both, in terms of shape and fat deposits. There are basically 3 types available of lunges:
• Barbell lunge
• Dumbbell lunge
• Body weight lunge
The good thing with the lunges is that there is provision for the newbies and the experienced lifters. The lunges particularly concentrate on the region below the waist. Your instructor will guide you on the most appropriate level to start.
Glute kick back
This is more spot specific. The glute kick back works your gluteus Maximus muscles and the hamstrings. It is a perfect substitute for squats and lunges. To some, it paves way for the same. How to lose lower body fat is even more simplified with the glute kick back.
Leg raise
The leg raise comes in different versions. Each version is muscle specific, so that you only concentrate on the leg raise that will tone your lower body and work specific muscles. The particular muscles that are worked by leg raise exercise include the: lower back muscles, abdominal muscles and hip muscles. It is very effective in toning the lower body!!!
Calf raise
The calf raise is appropriate for strengthening the calf muscles. Just like the case with leg raise, the calf raise is appropriate for strengthening the leg in general. It can be done using the dumbbells or just the body weight.
The above weight training exercises are best complemented cardio and dietary restrictions. A combination of the 3 is well-known to provide rapid results within a short span of time. Even so, it is practically impossible to attempt all these weight training exercises in one go. Choose on a set, then perfect them before moving on to the next.
The role of commitment & passion
Commitment & passion vital components of success. How to burn lower body fat never comes easy. At some instances it would call for sacrifices on time and even eating habits. A lot of compromise is not new to weight loss trainings. All these aspects call on you to love the game and dedicate your time and energy. Your level of commitment and passion defines probability of success in thus spot weight loss exercise. You have all it takes!!!!
We have provided you with a detailed coverage how to reduce lower body fat, exercises to lose lower body fat, diet to burn lower body fat. The content is but a guideline for you. It is not just enough to read. Implementation is the most important aspects if you are to realize real results!!!!!

FORT LAUDERDALE — Pat Griskus remembers waking up in St. Luke`s Hospital in Kansas City the morning after his motorcycle accident and seeing the bandages wrapped around his left leg.
``I looked down the sheets and saw my right leg was OK,`` Griskus said. ``Then I looked at my left leg and saw the bandages. I thought I had broken it because I saw my left foot.
``Then I realized I was playing a game with myself because I was so doped up on morphine. I propped my body up on my elbows and looked over the sheets. There was no foot.``
Griskus was an athletic 19-year-old Marine when he was struck by a drunk driver Aug. 18, 1967. His left leg was amputated below the knee.
It took him 15 years to come to grips with his handicap and alcoholism. After two years of training and competing, Griskus, 37, is a marathon runner and triathlete who holds the world record for amputees in the half and full marathon. He will compete Saturday in the fifth annual Penrod`s Tinman Race on Fort Lauderdale beach. The event, which begins at 8 a.m., will feature a 1- mile ocean swim, a 25-mile bike race and a 10K run.
Griskus was the first amputee to compete in the Ironman Triathlon in Kona, Hawaii, a grueling 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike race and 26.2-mile marathon. He finished in 13 hours, 42 minutes and 51.6 seconds.
He has competed in 22 triathlons and 11 marathons since he started competing two years ago. He was the only amputee to compete in the Empire State Building Run Up, held Feb. 14, finishing in 16:23.00.
``I`ll never forget that morning in the hospital,`` Griskus said. ``It was one of the turning points of my life. It didn`t hit me right away. I suspect it hit me in mini-doses during all those years. The first time it hit me I said, `Well, your leg is gone. What are you going to do about it?` The doctors and nurses were surprised how quickly I came to grips with it, but it really took a long time.``

MTV's Cribs
My apartment is many things; smallish, a little shadowy in some rooms, chilly in winter and over warm in summer. It doesn't have "good bones", no hardwood floors, no picture molding, but it's filled with things I really love. Every now and then, as I walk the long walk from bedroom to bathroom, or wrench open my stubborn oven door, I look around in wonder at how I've managed to (a) attain all these trappings of adulthood, and (b) manage to maintain it.
6 comments:
This room looks so cozy....I'd say it was my favorite too. I'm so jealous over the cleanliness of your house. Ahhh, someday.ReplyDelete
I absolutely love the sight of over-loaded bookshelves. I always get the feeling that it would be amazing to come home one day to find that the shelves had collapsed and you had a mountain of books to roll around in.ReplyDelete
Thanks Linds, unfortunatly, this room is not terribly cozy. It suffers from being too far away from the major head sources in our apartment. It is, however, much cooler than the rest of the apartment in the summer, so, that makes up for it.ReplyDelete
Rachel, I considered putting the bed directly under the book shelves, where the dresser is, but knew I'd never be able to sleep peacefully, wondering if that very thing, shelves collapsing, would do me in. Being murdered by Crime and Punishment, or Fight Club, or Ramona the Pest, or some respectable book wouldn't be so bad, but imagine if Tuesdays with Morrie was the book that finally killed you. Humiliating.
More humiliating is the fact that Tuesdays with Morrie is my book and if it killed you, I'd be responsible. I'd move it out of the way and place another book in its stead. Like turning the murder weapon around to make it look like a suicide.ReplyDelete
To Kill a Mockingbird would be appropriate for your death. Or As I Lay Dying. Maybe Catch 22?
Although from different places, but this perception is consistent, which is relatively rare point!ReplyDelete

BLOOMFIELD, NY -- "You know who you are" is the motto, or at least one of them, at Mark Mansfield's soon-to-open brewery in the town of Bloomfield, just west of Canandaigua.
The brewery itself is called Irish Mafia Brewing Co., which has ruffled a few feathers, Mansfield admits. "I'm proudly Irish,' he says, adding he didn't intend to offend anyone.
He'd rather talk about the brewery and the beer, anyway.
Irish Mafia plans to open its tasting room at the intersection of Whalen Road and Routes 5 & 20 in Bloomfield around Oct. 1. It'll be the second brewery near that location: The three-year-old Nedloh Brewing Co. is just down the road.
Irish Mafia will start out with four core beers: Mighty Ego IPA; Devoted Double IPA; Impetuous Irish Red Ale and Irish Loyalty Stout.
At first, those four will be brewed and packaged in cans at the War Horse Brewing Co. located in Three Brothers Wineries & Estates near Geneva. When it opens, Irish Mafia will have its own small-scale equipment to test out recipes and produce small batches.
Eventually, Irish Mafia will build its own large brewhouse and bring production to Bloomfield.
As you might expect with a brewery with "mafia" in the name, the partnership with Three Brothers is about family connections. Three Brothers and War Horse are co-owned by Dave Mansfield, Mark's brother. (That makes Mark one of the "Three Brothers," though he is not an owner).
War Horse's experience gave Mark Mansfield the idea to open his brewery before having all his own brewing equipment in place. For almost ten years, War Horse had its beers made under contract at CB Craft Brewers in Honeoye Falls. War Horse didn't open its own brewhouse -- after a $4 million investment -- until 2016.
"We can have beer, and have it out in cans, and build the brand while we put all the other pieces together," Mark Mansfield said.
Irish Mafia will serve what general manager Courtney Dolan calls "elevated pub food" with an Irish influence. It will also have 24 taps, serving its own beers and those from around the Finger Lakes.
Supporting the other nearby breweries is part of the plan, Mark Mansfield said.
"We want to be part of the Finger Lakes beer community," he said. "And, if you come in, and you don't like our beer, try one of the others. There will be something you like."
Three Brothers in Geneva: Wine, beer, coffee (medals, too)
Sahm Brewing: Coming soon to downtown Syracuse

"Katie, you are officially old"
(Tell me something I don't know. I have intense relationships with cats, rip out grey hairs daily and am thinking about summer sandals with arch support)
It was then that he held up a magazine I purchased, that was on the floor, next to the bed.
"Whaaat...... It had an article with Sophie Gregoire-Trudeau I wanted to read..." (Cuz anything to do with politics is soo associated with the younger generations...Phew! Good save, Katie).
(Andrew gives me a look)
"What? They have good recipes..."
As the words fall from my mouth..an additional grey hair sprouts up on my part and a cat I have never seen before, jumps up on the vanity.
I admit. My mom still reads Chatelaine. I used to read her copies from the library back in the day...a closeted old lady if you will, in high school.
I read them all... Ladies Home Journal, Good Housekeeping, Canadian Living...O magazine, when that appeared on the scene...quality reading establishments...grooming me for a domestic life...yep.
Don't worry I read more than my fair share of Seventeen, YM, Glamour, Cosmo..
But let's be honest..there are only so many beauty tips, sexual positions and platform shoes you want to try out..
Reading tastes mature with time..(IS Chatelaine mature? Not sure about that one...)
Well then...doesn't everyone have guilty pleasure reading?
In the meantime...I am thinking about getting an e-subscription to Chatelaine. No jokes.
(Speaking of age...My friend and fellow blogger, Sherrie, over at www.wellingtonfarm.ca is celebrating a birthday today! Hope your day was filled with cake, hugs and kisses, Sherrie!)

We were sitting in the back of the car watching the lights go by on the ceiling in a sleeping bag we were hungry drunk and half naked and didn't notice the time change from the last place we'd been. it still gets cold in the south at night when the winds are blowing slapping up against the windshield these blankets won't do anything at all.

I couldn't quite balance on it properly with my high heels and I'm sure the fact I was wear a corset, suspender belt and stockings didn't help either. I got a bit frustrated and started to take all my clothes off just so I could sit on the thing properly!

Visit The Somme is one of a series of articles which may interest you if you are considering visiting the great battlefields of Northern Europe. We will outline the importance of the battle in the context of the First World War, and describe some places to visit which will give you a real feel for what happened in that dreadful conflict.
First of all, have you ever watched or taken part in the London Marathon? Each year about 20,000 runners compete in this great event. As you watch the sea of faces passing across your screen bear a thought for the British soldiers on the 1st July 1916. That morning alone 19,240 were killed on The Somme and another 38,230 were injured. The worst casualties ever suffered by the British army in a single day.
Visit the Somme is not intended to be a detailed military history briefing – there are many far better qualified experts on the history of The Somme. But this short explanation will help you to understand why the battle took place and what happened on 1st July 1916.
When the First World War started in 1914 the British army expected it would be fought on the same principles which had governed war for centuries – fire and movement. One group fires at the enemy to keep their heads down, whilst another group moves to a new position.
Whilst the infantry and artillery fired at the enemy, the cavalry charged through gaps between enemy positions, and would then encircle them from behind. The infantry would then move forward to hold the ground. But two things happened to change all this.
The trenches the infantry dug and occupied to form local defensive positions were quickly joined up, so the front line became a continuous series of trenches from the English Channel to Switzerland. That made battlefield movement by mounted cavalry impossible.
The other major change was the ruthless killing efficiency of modern weapons; the artillery was capable of firing massive amounts of ammunition in very concentrated patterns, aided by the appalling efficiency of machine guns.
So once the initial lines of trenches became established, commanders had little option but full frontal attacks. Poor communications between the front line units and rear headquarters meant that senior commanders had little idea of the progress being made, and the level of casualties being suffered.
In December 1915 the four allies, Britain, France, Russia and Italy, agreed that a big attack would be made by the British and French in 1916 on the Western Front, whilst Russia would attack on the Eastern Front and Italy on the Italian Front. But when the Germans attacked Verdun in February 1916 many of the French Divisions intended for The Somme were diverted to Verdun.
Preparations for the attack on The Somme started. Huge numbers of British and Commonwealth soldiers marched up to holding positions just behind the front line. Many of the battalions were so-called Pals Battalions, because they were recruited from local areas or specific trades or professions. So when large numbers became casualties the effects were disastrous on local communities or trades.
Millions of artillery shells were fired at the German front line, and British soldiers were confidently told that the German defenders would either be killed or rendered useless by the bombardment. They wouldn't need to run towards the German defences – a gentle stroll was all that would be needed. Captain Wilfred "Billie" Nevill, a company commander in the East Surrey Regiment, wanted to give his men something to take their minds off the battle so had the platoons kick footballs as they walked towards the German lines … and certain death.
At 7.30 am in 1st July 1916 all along the British front line thousands of British soldiers waited for the whistle to blow to tell them the time had come to 'go over the top'. Carrying heavy packs and lots of ammunition, they started their steady advance towards the German lines.
Very quickly many of them became casualties. The preliminary bombardment had not killed or demotivated the German defenders, who now climbed out of their deep dugouts, and used their machine guns with devastating effect on the long lines of slowly advancing British infantry.
In some areas the British battalions were able to overcome the German defenders and achieve their objectives for the day. But they were the exceptions – most battalions suffered awful casualties and their attacks failed.
The battle of The Somme continued until 18th November 1916, by which time British and French forces had penetrated 6 miles into German-occupied territory, taking more ground than any offensive since the Battle of the Marne in 1914.

Discussion in 'PowerMac G3 B&W' started by billyjackintosh, Aug 31, 2012.
H60 is 1/4 in ID tubing, i use tygon tubing
Hey man,
Really enjoyed looking through your Powermac case mod
I'm working on my first mod and was hoping you could give me some advice. I bought an H90 water cooler from Corsair. It's a single fan, self-contained cooler. I noticed you say you put an H60 in yours, but your tubing is way longer.
Question: is your H60 this with just custom tubing? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181030
If so, that would mean you replaced the tubes with longer ones and then somehow bled the air out? Any advice on that?
Thanks so much!
(Couldn't send a private message, so posted here)
Been super busy IRL work, bleh,
But basicailly its pretty easy to mod a H60 , 90, etc.
Most of them are 1/4" ID tubing, i used tycoon <-- tygon but any 1/4 ID tubing will work.
i got about 10 feet just to make sure i had enough and in case i had to recut something.
bleeding the air is pretty easy also, look on you tube for ideas , but here is the concept.
use a bottle or a big bowl or pan.
Start by priming your cooling system by pouring coolest water mix in as much as possible, u may be able to use a syringe for turkeys or a funnel type device.
once system is primed
1.place the suction at the bottom of the bottle , bowl, or pan
2. place the outlet about 1/2" or 1" below surface of cooling fluid away from the suction.
make sure plenty of coolant is available and keep the outlet under the water level run for about 24 hours, that should get 99.9% of all the air out
Hey dude,
No apology necessary! See how long it took me to reply
Thanks man for the guidance. In the end I bought a reservoir for my loop. I decided I'm going to want flush out the line periodically.
I moved my build over to OC.net, you can take a look here: http://www.overclock.net/t/1535600/g3-blue-white-case-mod
A lot of inspiration came from your G3 - thanks so much!

A Modern Roman Forum
The Roman Forum. The centre of public life. The nucleus of commercial affairs. Whether you lived in ancient Rome, ancient Lugdunum (modern Lyon to you and me) or our very own Londinium, the Forum was the place to meet your mates, find out about all the latest trends, fashions and social news and of course, shop.

Beyond Londinium
The link between Bromley & Ancient Rome
In 43AD the Roman army crossed the Channel and began their conquest of Britain. Within a decade the area around the Thames had transformed into a city which would grow, be attacked, be fortified, be burnt, be rebuilt, expand and evolve. However, this isn't the story I'm here to tell (that's what we have the Roman Gallery for). This blog is interested in the lives beyond the city.

I was a post-doc in this lab from 1993-1997. Insect flight muscle is one of the best ordered muscles in nature, a fact that makes it an ideal specimen for studying the structure of crossbridges in different states. By crossbridges, we mean the enzymatic heads of the protein myosin which acts as a "motor" molecule to produce force during muscle contraction. We have been studying the structure of these crossbridges in different biochemical states that can be produced using non-hydrolyzable nucleotide analogs such as AMPPNP. Myosin cannot cleave AMPPNP to produce energy during contraction. However, addtion of AMPPNP to a rigor buffer in which striated muscle fibers are suspended will cause a decrease in the affintiy of myosin for actin. This change mimics the effect of ATP in contracting muscle which causes detachment of crossbridges at the end of the power stroke. We are investigating this effect using electron tomography to obtain 3-D images of the crossbridges. The picture shown at the right illustrates the effect of adding AMPPNP in concert with ethylene glycol on the strtucture. The crossbridges change in both attachment angle and redistribute to different actin binding sites. Specific markers on the thin filament allow us to determine which crossbridges are binding to actin specifically, in which position they could become force bearing crossbridges if the nucleotide was withdrawn, and which attach non-specifically, in which position they must detach and later reattach to a different site on actin in order to become force bearing. These crossbridges that bind actin specifically we call target zone crossbridges. These reconstructions have allowed to verify for the first time that myosin crossbridges can attach to actin in an angle other than the rigor angle.

Well, the first thing we learned- the Iowa tourism book that our great state offers for free was of NO help! Many places were listed in this handy dandy book, but they were not accurate at all! We learned mighty fast that most places in Iowa were closed on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays! So, if you want to vacation in our great state, don't vacation during the first part of the week. Unfortunately, this is just one more reason to vacation out of state! On another note, a couple places we opted to visit, which did take some navigating to find- were CLOSED and/or OUT OF BUSINESS!
I wish I could say that we love to vacation and support our home state, but due to the fact that many venues are not open, Colorado looks like a more appealing place to spend a week in the Summer. Sorry, Iowa! It's too bad businesses can't be open for the summer tourist, especially when a lake or river helps support their business.
Just my thoughts. I will say if you have never visited the Herbert Hoover Library, it is well worth a visit. This library was one of the few sites open for tourists- and I must say, I was thankful for that! After all, it's all in a Mom's day, right?

The University of California is proposing extensive revisions to the UC Policy for Protection of Whistleblowers from Retaliation and Guidelines for Reviewing Retaliation Complaints (Whistleblower Protection Policy), which applies to all University employees and all applicants for University employment.
The revisions are intended to improve the administration of the policy and ensure that complaints alleging whistleblower retaliation are processed more expeditiously. The revisions are also designed to make it easier for complainants to understand the process; they clearly outline what complainants need to include when filing a complaint under the policy and describe what happens at each step of the process.
The proposed policy is posted online at http://ucanr.edu/sites/Whistleblower/files/204102.pdf
Employees are invited to provide comments regarding the proposed policy to Robin Sanchez at firstname.lastname@example.com by January 28, 2015.

Georgia Tech will have three former players in the field for the Masters, starting Thursday morning.
Larry Mize teed off at 7:56 a.m. with Danny Willett and Byron Meth. It's his 32nd appearance for the 1987 champion. Mize, author of one of the most memorable shot in Masters history – a 140-foot chip-in to win the tournament in 1987 in a sudden-death-playoff – made the cut last year for the first time since 2009 and just the third time since 2001. They'll go off Friday at 11:03 a.m.
Matt Kuchar tees off at 1:04 p.m. with Brooks Koepka and Graeme McDowell. It's his ninth Masters, and he has made the cut in seven of his first eight. He has made the top 10 in each of the past three years. They start Friday at 9:35 a.m.
Cameron Tringale tees off at 11:25 a.m. with Ben Martin and Robert Streb. It's his first Masters appearance. He earned a spot by qualifying for the Tour Championship last year, which also earned him spots at the British and U.S. opens. They tee off at 8:07 a.m. Friday.
This is the first Masters that Stewart CInk has missed since 2003. Aside from the 2003 tournament, he had earned invitations to each Masters 1997-2014. Cink's 2009 British Open championship earned him a five-year exemption to Augusta. He finished tied for 14th last year, missing by one stroke the invitation awarded to all finishers in the top 12 plus ties.

The majority of IT professionals believe that skills shortages in data centre management will become a critical business concern in 2015, according to a new study.
Commissioned by Zenium Technology Partners and carried out by Dynamic Markets, the research comprised interviews with 210 senior IT decision-makers in the UK and Turkey.
It found that more than nine in ten (93 per cent) were aware of a growing data centre skills gap, with almost two-thirds (64 per cent) expecting this to have a detrimental impact on their business within the next two years.
This reflects the findings of a recent survey from CompTIA, which revealed that 93 per cent of UK executives rate data centre management skills as important, while 40 per cent are concerned about potential skills shortages in the field.
However, Zenium's study also found that only a few decision-makers are attempting to tackle the problem, with just 29 per cent of respondents having made efforts to close the skills gap.
Frank Sodzawiczny, the founder and chief executive of Zenium, argued that this negligence could result in firms losing access to mission-critical data when they need it most.
"Data is driving every business today and the increasing demands for real-time access to it in order to stay competitive means that systems need to be running effectively and efficiently 24/7," he commented.
"Quite simply, you need the very best people supporting these infrastructures, as failures can be catastrophic."
Last week, research carried out by BSA revealed that 65 per cent of EU firms believe data to be integral to their business, with 24 per cent citing a specific need for analytics in order to drive growth and innovation.
When looking for data recovery services, look for one with a track record of success. Ontrack Data Recovery services has 40,000 data recovery stories to tell every year.

All commissioner training is being reviewed and updated for 2014. The revised materials will be posted to the Commissioners website shortly after the Commissioner Tools are released as this update is primarily driven by the new Commissioner Tools. The revisions will also include new programs such as Voice of the Scout, as well as updates to the Unit Service Plan and JTE.
Basic Training
- Dave Fornadel—Team lead for Basic Training
All seven of the Basic Training courses are being updated by a team led by Dave Fornadel. Dave and his team have been instrumental in the development of commissioner Basic Training and will do a great job making sure we are current for 2014. Dave will incorporate the Commissioner Tools and the new Unit Service Plan as part of the Basic Training updates.
Commissioner College Courses
All 68 Commissioner College courses as well as the supporting materials in the General folder will be updated by the team listed below:
- Dick Kroll—Continuing Education courses
- Peter Matrow—Doctorate courses
- Craig Donais—Masters courses
- Bill Kropa—Bachelor courses
- Suzanne Windisch—Supporting materials in the General folder
It is a huge undertaking to review all materials—course outlines, teaching methods, materials needed, and PowerPoint presentations—and ensure that all of the attachments are current, as the BSA frequently updates literature. This team will make sure the course materials contain the most current information. The goal in making these updates is to ensure that we are offering current, up-to-date training that is aligned with the BSA's major initiatives. We also want to provide an outstanding learning experience for every commissioner, whether they have just been commissioned or have years of experience.
I would like to thank the team leaders above for their leadership and hard work. All commissioner training is maintained by volunteers from the commissioner staff, and this update would not be possible without their help.
If you have feedback on how training can be improved, please contact Tim Acree, national commissioner support staff training chair, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The HT-5RS mini stack combines the HT-5RH head with two 1x12 Blackstar voiced speaker cabinets. This award winning guitar amp and cabinet combination is fully equipped for studio use or for practice at home. It features stereo reverb, dedicated tone control on the clean channel and all the other features available across the HT-5 range.
An innovate 5 Watt, footswitchable 2 channel valve combo/head that uses 1xECC83 and 1x12BH7 valves.
Our patented ISF control can take you from the USA to the UK and anywhere between in seconds.
The HT-5RS features two footswitchable channels to allow you to switch between the Clean channel and the Overdrive channel.
The HT-5RS's Reverb control sets the overall level of the reverb effect. Turning the control clockwise will increase the amount of reverb.
The HT-5RS is the ultimate studio and practice amp, packing all the great tone and innovative features of the award-winning HT valve pedals into a two channel, footswitchable valve amp format.
The patented ISF control works with the Bass, Middle and Treble controls to give you access to infinite new sound possibilities from the USA to the UK and everywhere in-between. This fully interactive control allows you to infinitely adjust the response of the tone control network between any of the traditional voicings. In this way you can design your own sound and truly find the sound in your head.
Click here to find out more about the ISF Feature
The HT-5RS has two channels available for selection, a Clean channel and an Overdrive channel. Using the Volume control while on the Clean channel you are able to deliver everything from a clean sound through to a crunch tone. Alternatively you can select the Overdrive channel and again using the Gain control, change from a clean sound on the edge of breakup right through to a distorted lead tone.
The HT-5RS power amplifier is a low powered push-pull design which produces the crunch and break-up characteristics of a traditional 100W output stage, but at a much lower volume. This is achieved by the use of a 12BH7 dual triode valve in push-pull configuration producing 5 Watts output, which is rich in valve harmonics and compression, sounding full and toneful even at the lowest volume level.
The HT-5C and HT-5R both feature a custom designed 12inch Blackbird 50 speaker. The HT-5RS features two 1x12 cabinets that use the Blackbird 50 speakers.
A stereo MP3 / Line Input has been added to the HT-5RS allowing the user to play a backing track or similar, through the amp while practising / recording.
The external speaker output on the HT-5RS allows you to connect further extension cabinets. The output marked '1x16 Ohm' is for the connection of a single 16 Ohm extension speaker cabinet (or the internal loudspeaker of the HT-5 combo). The outputs marked '1x8 Ohm or 2x16 Ohm' are for the connection of either a single 8 Ohm extension cabinet or two 16 Ohm cabinets. Also, the internal loudspeaker of the HT-5 combo can be plugged in here if it is used with a 16 Ohm extension cabinet
The HT-5RS's Reverb control sets the overall level of the reverb effect. With the control fully counter clockwise there will be no reverb. Turning the control clockwise will increase the amount of reverb.

We recently talked with Nicole Meadowcroft, President of Custom Canines Service Dog Academy, Inc to hear more about their Autism Service Dogs program. Custom Canines is a charitable nonprofit organization of volunteer professionals and individuals dedicated to raising, training and placing servce dogs with the community of mankind living with vast disabilities.
Can you tell us a little bit on how Custom Canines Service Dog Academy started and when the Autism Service Dog program began?
Custom Canines Service Dog Academy was born in 2007 with the desire to help disabled individuals lead the best quality of life that they can. We offer Guide Dogs and Visual Companion Dogs for individuals who are blind or have vision impairments. The Mobility Service Dogs we train and place assist individuals with physical disabilities and handicaps.
The Autism Service Dog program is our most recent, and by far our most requested type of service dog. We launched the Autism Service Dog program a few years ago, based on parents contacting us and expressing the need and desire to work with a service dog. The program was piloted and developed from there. To date, we have successfully trained and placed 34 Autism Service Dog/child teams. The dogs offer an enhanced level of independence while providing for the emotional, physical, and safety needs of the child.
What are some of the benefits of having an autism service dog for an individual on the spectrum from your experience?
The benefits are many and differ depending on the individual team. Our first and primary focus is to insure the safety and needs of the Autistic child are being met. For some of our clients, the dogs have enabled their families to take their first vacation. They have opened the opportunity for the family to go shopping, or to take family excursions that would have previously been impossible due to over-stimulation, bolting/running, squealing/yelling, or any number of the other behaviors that typically limit social opportunities.
The dogs provide a constant partner and companion that the child can bond with. In most cases, the dog sleeps with the child, allowing for less panic attacks from the child and resulting in a more restful nights sleep. When working in public, most children are tethered to the dog, acting as an anchor for a child who may bolt or run away when over-stimulated. The dogs are trained to become a canine version of a weighted sensory blanket to help the child when the inevitable meltdown occurs. Some nonverbal clients have started to speak to the dog or tell others about their dog. There are many benefits - these are just a few. Each Custom Canine is specifically trained to enhance the unique needs of the child and household in which they are placed.
What are some of the factors you think families should consider when getting an autism service dog?
Some factors to consider when applying or searching for an Autism Service Dog would be the cost of the dog, allergies to dogs, monthly expense to maintain the health and wellness of a service dog and most importantly, how much training and instruction will you receive during the placement process. Unfortunately, there are numerous organizations that take advantage of families who are desperate to enhance the lives of their children; they pay an enormous amount of money for the service dog and have little to no training. At a minimum, all service dogs and their human partners should pass a Public Access Test with the organization they are working with. Another important factor to consider when thinking about a service dog would be to determine whether a service dog would be an enhancement or a hindrance to your situation.
Are there other animals from your experience that have helped individuals on the spectrum?
I am certain that there are other companion animals that can help individuals on the spectrum. However, ADA law only recognizes dogs and miniature horses as service animals that are granted public access.
In terms of resources, what are some steps that you took that you think would be beneficial for individuals who want to start autism service dog projects in their area?
Reach out to your local Autism Society or Autism Speaks chapter/organization. They can be tremendously helpful when matching partners or people with similar experiences and interests. Starting an Autism Service Dog program will take time, money, dedication, and resources - but it can be done. The driving factor behind everything is the heart. The changes these dogs make in the lives of not only the child, but the entire family dynamic can be absolutely astounding. Families of children with Autism will do anything to help their child adapt or thrive. These dogs can, and do help in many different ways.
Become versed with your local state and federal service dog access laws. Know what your rights are and what access you have with a service dog. A list of state service dog laws, along with the ADA law, can be found on our website at www.customcanines.org.
Anything else you'd like to share?
Do not be afraid to speak up and speak out. Parents of Autistic children are not alone and don't have to feel isolated in their experiences or struggles. Our endeavors all begin with our heart. The desire to help others live the best, most enhanced, and independent life they are able to live. Please visit our website to find out more about programs we offer and services that will enhance lives.

Book Magic provides manuscript evaluations and copyediting services for fiction and nonfiction books as well as academic papers and memoirs. The company is owned and operated by Sigrid Macdonald, who works in conjunction with Betsy Blondin, Dahlia Liwsze, Dian Yu and Gregory Banks. After living in Ottawa, Ontario, and happily servicing Canadians for decades, Sigrid currently resides in sunny Florida; some team members remain in Canada, and others are in the US. Regardless of our physical locations, we have always worked with clients all over the world, and we welcome American, Canadian, European, Asian, African and Australian writers. Sigrid has also spent a great deal of time working with people who have English as a second language, including students who don't want to submit papers with mistakes in verb tenses or missing prepositions.
Meet the Team
Sigrid Macdonald is the successful author of three full-length books, which she published herself, and two short stories, which were released by Silver Publishing. Her first book, Getting Hip: Recovery from a Total Hip Replacement, became an Amazon bestseller on Kindle. It has sold more than 16,000 copies. Her second book, a novel titled Straight and Narrow, is loosely based around a true-life story about a woman who disappeared in Ottawa, Ontario. It is crime fiction but also a mystery because it is highly fictionalized. Sigrid's third full-length book, Be Your Own Editor, is self-explanatory: she did writing tips for years for the website freelancezone.com, and eventually she decided to publish a book for people who preferred to edit their own work.
Sigrid has been affiliated with five publishing companies including Dragon Moon Press in Alberta; Contento de Semrik International Publishing House in Israel; Book Coach Press in Ontario; Total Recall Press in Texas and Hasmark Publishing in Ontario. She has extensive experience writing, editing, and proofreading, as well as self-publishing, and is available for consultations for those who are interested in choosing the highest quality professionals for the lowest cost to format and distribute work for Kindle and Smashwords. This includes referrals to the finest formatting people, graphic art designers, and cutting edge, affordable website designers.
Sigrid has a BA in Psychology, graduating summa cum laude, from Ramapo College in Mahwah, New Jersey, and did graduate studies in Social Work at the University of Toronto. She is a member of the Editors' Association of Canada, the Editorial Freelancers' Association, and Ottawa Independent Writers, and she spent many years in Toastmasters International. Sigrid edits fiction and nonfiction books according to The Chicago Manual of Style, but she is familiar with the American Press and Canadian Press guidelines, which she uses for press releases, minutes of board meetings, and other business announcements.
Betsy Blondin is a twenty-five year veteran in writing, editing, and publishing with a foundation as a legal assistant and a passion for working with people and words. Before establishing her own editing company, Word Metro, she spent nine years as an editorial manager in book publishing, shepherding more than seventy-five books through the editorial process. She also founded Word Metro Press, through which she has published At Home Abroad: Today's Expats Tell Their Stories and Migraine Expressions: A Creative Journey through Life with Migraine as well as helped others publish their books. As a newspaper reporter, photographer, and editor, Betsy wrote hundreds of local stories and copyedited the stories of several other reporters. In addition she created and conducted grammar workshops for newsroom writers and editors. Betsy's specialties are copyediting and proofreading, and she has consulted with authors and edited numerous books, articles, and academic papers. She loves to work with those who are passionate about their work and want their writing to shine.
Dahlia Liwsze is a freelance writer and editor whose work has appeared in publications, which include the Let's Connect newsletter, Open File, The Ottawa Sun, (Cult)ure magazine, Suite 101, Centretown News, Il Postino, The Concordian, The Link, and The Suburban.

She loves reading and hopes to polish each work she sees to perfection. Dian currently studies at the University of Toronto. She has worked as a copy editor with Book Magic for six years.
Greg Banks has been a graphic designer for twenty-eight years and in the self-publishing industry for twelve years. He uses his expertise in layout, cover design, and ebook creation to help authors publish their books with the professional polish they deserve. Greg is the owner of WheelMan Press; his goal is to support and showcase a variety of authors.
Rest assured that we respect your confidentiality at Book Magic. Our copyediting and manuscript evaluation contracts promise never to forward, reproduce, or copy your material in any way, shape, or form; we guarantees this. We can also help you to copyright your material if you are concerned about piracy. Approximately one third of our clients are returning clients; that's because writers tend to write one book or document after another. It also says something about how they feel about our company—they have found a home here, and we hope that you will too.

Review: Alice Hoffman's The Red Garden
If Alice Hoffman was a painter, her brush strokes would barely touch the canvas, yet her pictures would be as vivid as Monet's. She crafts delicate stories that always seem on the verge of wafting away until they come back to earth with some devastating, perfect detail.
The Red Garden is something new from her: a book pitched somewhere between a short story collection and a novel. The individual tales stand more or less on their own, but the cumulative effect is much more novelistic. The continuing character is Blackwell, a Massachusetts town that she tracks from its settling in 1750 through the present day. Founded by a woman so tough and determined that she milks a bear to keep the settlers alive, the town remains home to strong-willed women who either choose duty over love, or find love's solace fleeting. The men are often confused, aimless, seeking a direction in life that many of them find in the wilderness of the nearby mountain. Bears are a recurring motif, as are bees and eels in the river. The titular garden grows plants that inevitably turn red for reasons that the reader knows, but not the inhabitants.
And there are elements of overt magic, specifically in the story "The Fisherman's Wife." But for the most part, the supernatural elements remain subtle, hidden, easily explained to the characters with more mundane explanations. Only the reader, with the perspective of history, sees them for what they truly are. And it's that gentle, cobweb-light push/pull of magic and reality that defines the book's tone.
Stylistically, Hoffman goes for something equally subtle. Characters weave in and out of the stories, and Hoffman plays with narrative voice when it suits her ("The Truth About My Mother," for example, is told in first person). There's a sense that the penultimate story, "The Red Garden," resolves threads left from the very first tale, "The Bear's House." But then there's a final story, "King of the Bees," that thematically says no story ever ends, not even when we think we understand it. Blackwell's tales go on, just as life continues past our own moments of epiphany.
As a reader, I try to expose myself to things vastly different from what I write. The Red Garden has virtually nothing in common with my own stories, but I hope it teaches me to be a hair more subtle, or to risk a moment of delicacy amongst the swordplay and carnage.

sounds interesting... as usual, I've added this to my way-too-long 'to read' list... no idea when I'll get my hands on it, but at least it's on the list :) Thanks :)

I'll get this book - that's what a good review will do. I like subtle supernatural elements- I use those in my own writing, letting the reader decide if it's "real" or the character's reality or whatever . . .
So, this is timely, since I've just began reading Alice Hoffman's work just this past week. Two of her earlier works: At Risk & Seventh Heaven-the latter of which I enjoyed more.

The dinner and awards ceremony recognizes industry champions who prioritize environmental sustainability.
Martin Guitar CEO & Chairman Chris Martin IV will be on hand to accept the award. "C.F.

"We are honored to be receiving the Sustainable Standard-Setter Award and are looking forward to continuing our good work with their organization for many years to come."
By maintaining Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) Chain of Custody certification, Martin Guitar is abiding by one of the highest social and environmental standards available. In 2009 Martin Guitar was one of the first acoustic guitar manufacturers to produce a guitar model comprised entirely of FSC® certified woods. The D Mahogany includes a genuine mahogany neck, back and sides, an Alpine spruce soundboard and katalox fingerboard and bridge.
"We are delighted to honor Martin Guitar for its long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship," said Tensie Whelan, president of the Rainforest Alliance. "Martin Guitar sets a leading example in the music industry, demonstrating that wooden acoustic instruments can be produced in a way that conserves fragile forest ecosystems."
The Rainforest Alliance has been a leader in conservation since its founding in 1987 and twenty six years later has over 190 million acres of farms and forestland under sustainable management and 11 million people across the globe that are reaping the benefits of its work. Funds raised at the gala help the Rainforest Alliance protect beautiful landscapes, mitigate the effects of climate change and ensure sustainable livelihoods for millions of people that depend on forests.

Posted on Jan 29, 2014 in Articles, Property Investors by Gerald Tay 1 Comment
As happens every year, property firms — including property agents, mortgage lenders, property 'gurus', and property analysts– have released their end-of-year predictions for where prices will go in 2014. Many pundits expect prices to rise slightly this year, but not by much.
These 'expert' forecasters seemed to possess the 'I know-it-all' investment mentality and offer to share their prophecies with the public for obvious interests.
Human fascination with the future can be traced back to prehistoric times. People have always wanted to predict the future for psychological reasons (to reduce their fear and anxiety about the unknown). Concrete evidence shows that the human desire to foresee the future has been exploited by some for profit, fame, or power.

He said the government should consider repealing the Seller Stamp Duty (SSD) for residential properties introduced in January 2011, because sellers who are keen to dispose their properties may find themselves tied down by it.
Many people I have met who want you to invest in property don't care two hoots if you make money or not, as long as they profit from your investment. And the same group of people are now calling for property curbs to be removed because of a so-call 'lacklustre' property market.
Mr Getty Goh is one of the few respected voices I listen to among the many industry players, and therefore I believe he does not fall into the category of those "Please invest in property so WE can get rich" group. His view on relaxing some property rules may be a personal view of his own and not for profit interests.
Here are 6 reasons why property curbs should NOT be removed today– at least till a correction happens.

There are far too many companies shouting about the benefits of property investment, when really what they mean is "Please invest in property so WE can get rich". The reality is, many people I have met who want you to invest in property don't care two hoots if you make money or not, as long as they profit from your investment!
I must admit, I find 'armchair investors' very perplexing.

Product Videos
In this video, Noah from Bright Agrotech walks you through the simple process of planting a ZipGrow tower. Learn more: http://brightagrotech.com/planting-a-zipgrow-tower/ Step #1: Wicking Strips The first step is to take one Matrix Media insert, fold it in half and place the wicking strip so it even with the front of the insert. This wicking material is great for planting a new ZipGrow tower as it helps draw moisture from your irrigation directly to the roots of your new seedlings. Step #2: Planting Seedlings Once you've properly prepped your Matrix Media and wicking material, it's time to start planting your seedlings. Remember: plant spacing will largely depend on the crop you're growing so be sure and read this article for more info. When in doubt, consult the back of your seed packet and use the recommended spacing. With common crops like lettuce, you'll shoot for 6-8 inches or about 8 plants per 5′ ZipGrow tower. Place your seedlings so that the top of the root ball is flush with the top (or front side) of the media insert (i.e. the side you want facing the sun or artificial lighting source). Step #3: Pulling the Media Once you've placed your seedlings on one side of the media insert in the proper spacing, fold the other half of the media over and pull slowly into your ZipGrow tower housing. Repeat this process for the next media insert (for a 5′ tower) and you've successfully planted your ZipGrow tower! Find out more about ZipGrow products here: http://brightagrotech.com/products/
